lying on the open prairie, where he had
been left for dead by the Indians. He
was dangerously wounded In the breast, ,

The Portuguese government has re-
ccivcd an official telegram from Mozam
biquc announcing that Bonga, the fam
Gus pirate of the Zambesi, has been com
pletely defeated by the Portuguese
troops, and that his thirty-six villages,
all of them strongly defended by pall-
sades. have been destroyed.
This man, of whom Livingstone wrote
in his first book of explorations, has re-
Africa longer and more successfully
than any other native chief. He has
been the avowed enemy of the
Portuguese since 1910, and,
though several years have sometimes
elapsed without hostilities, it has only
been because the Portuguese meanwhile
have let BOnga severely alone. Many
renegade Portuguese, half-breeds and
most of the robbers and disorderly char
acters OF the Portuguese terrific
ries flOcked to Bonga's standard, and
his authority was supreme from the
Zambesi, within twenty-five miles of the
important Portuguese settlement at
Tete, $50 miles southwest to the king
dom of the Mantabele. One OF Bonsa's
sOns-in-law was a nearly full-blooded
Portuguese, and number of these out
lawed Europeans have smuggled ammu-
milton from Madagascar and in other
ways contributed largely to Bonga's
remarkable success.
Livingstone, fearing treachery, did
not visit Bonga's stronghold on the
Zambesi, but one or two other white
travellers have been Hospitality enter
tanned there. Some years ago the Por-
tuguese attempted to knock the de-
fenses OF this place to pieces with can
non, but Bonga's soldiers made havoc
among the gunners, and compelled the
whites to raise the seige before the
very strong stockade had been de-
stroyed.
The campaign in which Bonga has
been hopelessly defeated, is the fourth
serious attempt by the Portuguese have
made to subjugate him. Their long de-
ferred triumph will give them complete
mastery over the Lower Zambesi and
its tribes.
